battery to approx. 70% of its total capacity to store it for a longer period of time. In case of prolonged storage, the battery
should be periodically charged once a year. Do not over-discharge the battery as this will shorten its life and may cause
irreparable damage. During storage, the battery will gradually discharge due to leakage. The self-discharge process
depends on the storage temperature – the higher the temperature, the faster the discharge process. If the batteries
are stored incorrectly, electrolyte may leak. In case of leakage, secure the leak with a neutralising agent. In the case of
electrolyte contact with eyes, rinse eyes thoroughly with water, and immediately seek medical attention. It is not allowed
to use the device with a damaged battery. If the battery is completely worn, return it to a specialist waste disposal centre.
Transport of batteries
Lithium-ion batteries are treated as hazardous materials, according to legal regulations. The user of the device can
transport the product together with the battery and the batteries alone, by land. In that case, no additional conditions
have to be met. If you entrust transport to third parties (e.g. a courier company), follow the regulations regarding the
transport of hazardous goods. Before shipping, please contact a properly qualifi ed person. It is not allowed to transport
damaged batteries. For the duration of transport, remove the disassembled batteries from the product, secure the
exposed contacts, for example by covering them with insulation tape. Protect the batteries in the packaging in such a
way that they do not move inside the packaging during transport. National regulations for the transport of hazardous
materials must also be observed.
PRODUCT OPERATION
Preparing the device for operation
Unpack the product and completely remove all parts of the packaging. It is recommended to keep the packaging for the
purpose of shipping the product in the future.
Press the switch and the display will show a percentage indication of the device's battery charge status. The product
can come with a partially charged battery, but it is required to perform full charging, before the fi rst use. To do this,
connect the plug of the lead running from the charger supplied with the product into the socket marked as "15V INPUT
(CHARGE)". Connect the charger to a power supply network. If the charge indicator shows 100%, it means that the
product's battery is fully charged.
Disconnect the charger from the power supply socket and then unplug the charger lead from the socket in the product.
The product is ready for use.
The product can also be charged by means of the electric system in a vehicle working with 12V voltage. To this end,
use a vehicle charger equipped with a cable terminated with a plug to charge the product.
The process of charging the product using the electric system in a vehicle is done in the same manner as the afore-men-
tioned charging process involving a power charger. Read the documentation provided with the vehicle, before charging
the product using the electric system in a vehicle.
Caution! It is not possible to use any other function of the product, while it is being charged.
Using the product to jump start vehicles
Prepare the product by charging it to full capacity. It is not allowed to use the starter device, if the battery charge indi-
cator in the product shows 20% capacity or less.
The device has been designed to perform an emergency jump start and it should not be used in place of a regular
starter.
Connect the terminals of the jump leads to the battery terminals. Pay attention to the correct polarity. The terminal
marked as "+" must be connected to the battery terminal with the same symbol. The terminal marked as "-" must be
connected to the battery terminal with the same symbol.
Connect the plug of the jump leads to the socket matching that plug. The shape of the plug allows its connecting only in
one correct manner. Do not apply excessive force, when connecting the plug of the jump leads to the product.
Start the vehicle. If the vehicle does not start within 2 seconds, wait at least 30 seconds before making another attempt.
This delay is necessary for the product and the jump leads to cool down.
After starting the vehicle, do not stop the engine and immediately unplug the plug of the jump leads from the product,
